The Year Ahead
Forecast for May 2009 to May 2010

The Sun and Mercury align in your Solar Return chart this year, suggesting a
busy period in your life. Both bodies square Jupiter, Neptune, and Chiron, which
is an inspired combination but it does point
to some excess--inflated expectations that can interfere with your mood,
producing highs and lows. The trick is to use this energy for creative
envisioning and problem-solving. The desire to expand your experiences and
faith, and widen your mind, is great. Saturn trine your Sun can help ground you,
but after its pass in September, you might be tempted to throw practical
considerations out the window, which could be costly if taken too far. You are
hungry for a more idealistic life, and more willing to make personal sacrifices
in order to achieve it. Some disappointment, restlessness, and faulty thinking
should be watched for. Routine seems to be particularly unsatisfying now. This
is a time when you can easily take a detour from a practical path. It can also
be a time when you are disillusioned by something (or someone). You might also
find that you are easily led astray. Spiritual inspiration is a potential, and
there is much to learn about yourself, your dreams and ideals, and others this
year.
Uranus sextile the Sun and Mercury are very helpful aspects. Interesting and
mostly pleasant changes and new interests figure in your year ahead. It’s easier
than ever to express your unique individuality, and if this involves changing
careers or jobs, a new love affair, or an entirely new hobby, it’s something
that takes you forward into unexplored territory. You are more willing to adapt
to new circumstances, ideas, and unfamiliar situations this year. It's a good
time to join organizations and groups and to attend meetings or social events.
You are able to find creative solutions to problems now. Flexibility is the key
to success under this influence. Your personality is sparkling this year, which
is sure to attract new circumstances and people into your life. You are also
able to find new insight into old problems, and your thinking processes during
this period are likely to be especially original. This is a good year for
projects involving technology or New Age topics. You may find more
opportunities to attend meetings and other organized group activities, to
communicate online, and to take part in activities involving computers,
scientific projects, or metaphysics. Unexpected gains may be realized through
such mediums. Your intuition is strong, and insights seem to come from "out of
the blue". Original, creative ideas are easy to come by this year. A creative
aspect from Pluto to the Sun and Mercury helps to give you some focus and
determination. You are certainly more creative this year, and likely branching
into totally new endeavors that suit your personality well.
Venus is aligned with Mars in your Solar Return chart, and romantic and
creative passions figure strongly this year. New beginnings on the romantic
front are likely. If you are not currently in a
relationship, you are more likely to make the first move and go after what or
who you want. Your
affections are strongly stimulated, and you are more acutely aware of your
powers of attraction. Romance, love, and sexuality occupy your mind more than
usual. You can enjoy an increase in personal magnetism (as well as libido!), but
be wary of competitiveness or tension in existing love relationships, as this
aspect ignites your passions in general, whether they‘re feelings of love or
anger! Now is also a good time to engage in creative projects and to join with
others in pursuing a common goal. If you are involved in competition, you could
come out a winner. Venus and Mars in Aries suggests some impulsiveness in love
(and with money), and it
also implies new beginnings. Venus in awkward aspect to Saturn suggests some
interference with your pursuit of pleasure, perhaps due to increased
responsibilities.
With the Sun trine the North Node of the Moon, you are likely to form new
relationships or connections that further your spiritual growth, or to enhance
existing relationships with a spirit of camaraderie. People in authority regard
you favorably for the most part. Events take place in which you feel like you
are moving forward and growing into a new phase of your life.
A busy year is ahead.
Romantic and
creative passions are big themes. Exploring your feelings, and a
spirited approach to relating, figure strongly. You are likely feeling restless
and have a tendency to misplace your faith in projects (and possibly people!)
that require more attention to facts. Keeping concern for the future in mind and
realistic expectations in most areas of your life should keep you on solid
footing. Trying out new ways of expressing your creativity also figures
strongly.
2009
is a Number Nine year for you. Ruled by Mars. This is a year of completion and
transition. It is a time when we need to let go of things that no longer serve
their purpose, and hold on to things that have a future. It is a time of
cleaning out dead wood, not necessarily for new beginnings. It can be a time
when a burden has been taken off your shoulders, and it can be a year of giving
of yourself. Advice - let go of things that are holding you back, give of
yourself and express your sympathetic, compassionate side.
2010
will be a Number One year for you. Ruled by the Sun. This is a year of action.
The seeds you plant now, you will reap later. Others might find you less
sociable, as you are busier than ever and you focus on your activities and your
needs. Still, you are outgoing and your initiative is stronger than ever. Advice
- Stand alone, take action, start fresh, express independence.
